On May 23, 2025, Teva Pharmaceuticals USA recalled one lot of metoclopramide 10mg tablets to the consumer level. The recall was initiated because a single tablet of Torsemide 20mg was found in three bottles of the affected lot. Metoclopramide stimulates movement in the upper gastrointestinal tract to treat nausea, vomiting, gastroparesis, and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Torsemide is a loop diuretic used to treat fluid retention and high blood pressure. Since patients are at increased risk for unintended side effects outside of the metoclopramide safety profile, this recall is being conducted at the consumer level.
